“The blessings of your father

Are greater than the blessings of my ancestors [Abraham and Isaac]

Up to the utmost bound of the everlasting hills;

They shall be on the head of Joseph,

Even on the crown of the head of him who was the distinguished one and the one who is prince among (separate from) his brothers.

Or were you created before the hills?

The pastures of the wilderness drip [with dew],

And the hills are encircled with joy.

The mountains will bring peace and prosperity to the people,

And the hills, in [the establishment of] righteousness.

The mountains leaped like rams,

The [little] hills, like lambs.

O mountains, that you leap like rams,

O [little] hills, like lambs?

Mountains and all hills;

Fruitful trees and all cedars;

“Before the mountains were settled,

Before the hills, I was born;

(The Shulammite Bride)

Behold, he comes,

Climbing on the mountains,

Leaping and running on the hills!

And the shadows flee away,

[In my thoughts] I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh

And to the hill of frankincense.

Now it will come to pass that

In the last days

The mountain of the house of the LORD

Will be [firmly] established as the [fn]highest of the mountains,

And will be exalted above the hills;

And all the nations will stream to it.

Against all the high mountains,

Against all the hills that are lifted up,

Yet today the Assyrian will halt at Nob [the city of priests];

A thousand of you will flee at the threat of one man;

You will flee at the threat of five,

Until you are left like a flag on the top of a mountain,

And like a signal on a hill.

For so the LORD says to me,

“As the lion or the young lion growls over his prey,

And though a large group of shepherds is called out against him

He will not be terrified at their voice nor cringe at their noise,

So the LORD of hosts will come down to wage war on Mount Zion and on its hill.”

“Every valley shall be raised,

And every mountain and hill be made low;

And let the rough ground become a plain,

And the rugged places a broad valley.

And marked off the heavens with a span [of the hand],

And calculated the dust of the earth with a [fn]measure,

You will thresh the mountains and crush them,

And make the hills like chaff.

I will turn the rivers into coastlands

And be led forth [by the LORD Himself] with peace;

“Truly, [the hope of salvation from] the hill [where idols are worshiped] is a deception,

A tumult and noisy multitude on the mountains;

Truly in the LORD our God

Is the salvation of Israel.

And all the hills moved back and forth.

“I have seen your vile and detestable acts,

Even your adulteries and your lustful neighings [after idols],

And the lewdness of your prostitution

On the hills in the fields.
